I went back through the first (post-hospital) mission in MGSV today, and man, I love it as an intro level so much, especially going in with your limited early loadout. It's especially fun after going through 1-3 a bit ago, it feels incredibly refined, but also recognizable as the same core gameplay. It's also a great setup for showing off how well the game can handle the various levels of alerts once you get to the village where Miller's being held, and you inevitably make one wrong move and they notice you're there. As much fun as I had in the earlier games, it just feels like you have so much more capability to handle things once the base is onto you. I'm a bit more ambivalent on the ending, once the Skulls show up. On the one hand, it's a neat-looking setpiece, but at the same time, there's not much to do. You're basically just galloping from point A to point B while neat things happen around you, but there's not really any danger unless you get your horse stuck in the terrain or something. Oh well, it goes by fast enough that I can't be too hard on it, everything else is fun enough that I think I'm gonna get back into the game for the millionth time.

I forgot to mention, I also always enjoy being surprised by the fact that you can't understand anybody on the ground until you get translators. I only learned this time that you can't even motion people to lie down on the ground, I thought that was an exception for some reason. I like the mechanic a lot, it's another thing that makes you really feel like you're out on your own. I can't remember how directly the game makes you get an interpreter, I wonder how long you could feasibly go on without one.

Playing through MGS1 again and noticing for the first time how many unique cinematic camera angles there are for extremely specific situations. Example : crouching next to every single dead guard in the hallway before the Grey Fox fight will switch to an nicely composed shot different for each of them.

I never played MGS3 in normal (locked) camera as I only had subsistence and could change it to free floating so I do wonder if I was missing something. Reviews tell me no but; I bet someone here feels differently.

From my recent playthrough where I belatedly realized you could change the camera, the original one is great during the endgame's motorcycle setpiece, but only useful as a way to quickly reorient yourself towards north on the map outside of that situation.

I had a fun time going through a couple missions today, I managed to do an unbroken stealth run of C2W....only to get a terrible rank because I forgot my previous comedic attempts at infiltrating using the classic truck/smoke grenade combo would also count for the overall score. But then I turned that around and S-ranked Over The Fence by sniping everyone from a distance until I could just freely walk in and yoink the bionics engineer with no trouble. All with no interpreter so I have no idea what anyone is saying, of course. And I also picked up the most important member of the team. https://i.imgur.com/cCTP59I.mp4 I can already tell he's gonna be a big help on the stealth side of things

I think the motorcycle sequence is the only time it's worth using. I'm not sure if the natural environment lends itself to as striking compositions as the industrial setpieces of MGS1 and 2, but when I cycle back around to 3 I'll see if there are some more unique angles with the classic camera.

Was watching some mgs4 cutscenes for the first time in ages. Do you think Big Boss thought up that corny 0 to 100 binary analogy in the 90s, or was it when he woke up in the far off future of 2014 and wanted to look tech savvy to his grandpa son?

https://i.imgur.com/KxyaulN.mp4 That moment when you're going in silent, but you suddenly remember you researched an OP weapon because you wanted to fight a chopper  It actually worked out fine, I was just able to sneak through that whole area in the dark since everyone was focused on the mystery of the collapsing sniper tower.  It also reminded me, that area (the big bridge at the Mountain Relay Base) is one of the neater looking locations in the game, especially at night when all the scaffolding sections are lit up.

Yep, I think you have to be out in the field for around five days for the flies to trigger, I'm not sure whether being covered in blood is necessary but it can't hurt. And the cutscene does only happen once, I had to achieve that stink level twice to get on base like that. Unrelated, but I've been running around in Africa today, and I still haven't picked up an interpreter. I would've figured they'd force me into getting one by now, but it's an interesting little twist on the missions. It's fun to just go with the flow as radio chatter says things I don't always recognize, and there've been a number times where it adds a little complexity if I don't remember where an objective is and I can't interrogate it out of anyone.

Invalid Validation posted:Wish there was more to do on mother base. Just needed a couple more games Konami! I wanted more to do on Motherbase, although I honestly couldn't tell you what I would want, I guess more immersive / sim like stuff that are just fun or relaxing. And the ability to go into missions with AI or even co-op with other players, but that would have been way out of the scope for MGSV, maybe in a sequel but that will never happen.

More active challenges beyond a target gallery on each platform would be fun - tactical stuff you could do with explosives, rocket arm, etc. You could even do vehicle based activities, they've got the space out there. The animal collection and greenhouse also feel like natural things to expand on, since they're neat to see at first but never really amount to anything. Maybe they could've fit with more active management stuff.

Bowling, darts, gambling, batting cages, claw machine, some weird phone sex minigame involving the radio somehow, claw machine, an arcade full of Konami classics, a claw machine... Look maybe I'm too drat lazy to switch from MGSV to Yakuza sometimes, okay?!

I had a good laugh doing Lingua Franca today, after rescuing all the prisoners and the Viscount, Ocelot goes "we could sure use that interpreter too...think you could extract him?" Sorry, not on this run, buddy! This anti-translation train has already left the station
